Chapter 229: Who Will Be The Official Wife?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Empress stood up and threw herself into Su Wen’s arms.

Su Wen’s body froze. He did not know what to do.

“Carry me back…”

The Empress spoke softly.

At this moment, she felt that something was wrong!

This guy seemed to have something he shouldn’t have…

The Empress’ expression changed drastically as she abruptly pushed Su Wen away.

“You! You didn’t castrate yourself?!” She was horrified.

Seeing that he had been exposed, Su Wen’s heart tightened. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes as he prepared to attack!

However, at this moment, the Empress sighed again. “Forget it. Even if you don’t have a clean body, so be it. This is also good.”

Su Wen: “????”

“Why aren’t you coming over to carry me back?” the Empress suddenly asked coquettishly in a sultry voice!

Su Wen gritted his teeth and steeled his heart!

He walked straight over!

The Empress would never have thought that the person in front of her was the murderer who killed her son.

As for Su Wen, he also felt a unique thrill of getting revenge.

Emperor Zhou!

Haha!

I didn’t take the initiative!

Outside the royal chambers…

Several palace maids whispered to each other.

“Why is the Empress suddenly so fond of this? Didn’t she look down on those people in the harem who did this the most in the past?”

“What do you know? The Empress has lost her son, so she naturally has reservations now.”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk…”

They were all close to the Empress and would not spread rumors, but gossiping in private was common.

In the bedroom, the Empress sat in front of the dressing table with a satisfied expression.

Su Wen was combing her hair behind her.

“Empress, I think you and His Majesty should not make things too awkward,” Su Wen persuaded.

Sometimes, when one’s relationship was closer, one could speak more casually.

The Empress said indifferently, “Why? Isn’t it better to be rigid? It’s more convenient too.”

“If it’s too rigid… I’m afraid it won’t be easy to protect your position,” Su Wen said. “Now that His Highness the Crown Prince has returned to the heavens and you don’t have any children, no matter who His Majesty appoints as the Crown Prince, his mother will start to think about moving up the hierarchy.”

The Empress’s face darkened. She also knew that Su Wen was right.

“So what?” the Empress said plaintively. “In the end, it all depends on His Majesty’s wishes…”

Su Wen smiled and said, “As the saying goes, the plan depends on the person, and the success depends on the heavens. Your Majesty, please ease your relationship with His Majesty a little and find another opportunity to make another prince. You can still fight for it!”

However, Su Wen was not thinking about the benefit of the Empress.

Only when the Empress and the Emperor eased up would he have the chance to drug the Emperor.

The Empress laughed upon hearing his words.

“I didn’t expect you to have such knowledge…”

After calming down and thinking about it, it seemed to make sense.

She pondered for a moment and said to Su Wen, “Then will you invite His Majesty over later?”

“Alright!”

Emperor Zhou was rubbing his glabella at the moment.

The Crown Prince was dead, and the Empress had totally flipped at him. He felt terrible too.

“Your Majesty, the Empress said to invite you over…” Su Wen bowed and reported from outside the hall.

“Huh?” Emperor Zhou looked confused.

They even had a big fight just now, and now she wanted him to go over?

He asked coldly, “For what matter?”

“The Empress said that she knows her mistake and wants to apologize to His Majesty.” Su Wen added this sentence himself.

However, as expected, Emperor Zhou smiled when he heard this.

After all, they had been together for so many years. It would not be good for anyone if things got too awkward.

He immediately stood up and walked over to the Empress’s chambers.

After arriving at the Empress’s chambers…

After the Empress said a few soft words, they reconciled.

The two of them had been husband and wife for many years after all…

They then decided to have dinner in the Empress’s chamber!

Finally… Su Wen’s chance came!

He took the soup bowl from the delivery eunuch…

The pill slipped inside.

After experiencing the Great Chu’s Third Prince, he was extremely certain that this thing would not be detected by any sort of poison detection methods.

As expected, when the soup bowl was delivered to them, someone immediately took out a detection tool to check for poison.

However, a negative result was shown.

Su Wen then slowly retreated and found an empty spot to open the door before running away!

Emperor Zhou picked up the bowl and slowly drank it.

“The soup today tastes really good…” Emperor Zhou praised with a smile.

The Empress smiled. “Then let them make more.”

At this moment, the Empress was also deep in her own thoughts.

If she really reconciled with Emperor Zhou, what would happen to Little Pingzi?

If someone found out about their relationship… wouldn’t it be dangerous?

She already had the intention to silence him.

She also knew that if she really kept the fake eunuch by her side, sooner or later, there would be trouble.

But… there was some reluctance in her heart… After all, it was difficult to forget such a taste once you’ve tried it.

At this moment, she suddenly glanced at Emperor Zhou, and she stared hard!

Her eyes filled up with fear!

“Your Majesty, what’s wrong with you?!”

The Empress shrieked.

“Ah!” Emperor Zhou’s terrified and furious voice resounded throughout the entire capital.

“Who dares to harm me!”

He had undergone the same transformation as the Great Chu’s Third Prince.

It was a change that no man could accept.

Even though Emperor Zhou was a Heaven Rank expert, he was still forced to change under the effects of this pill, even though it didn’t affect his battle prowess at all.

A group of Heaven Rank experts arrived at the scene.

“Your Majesty…”

Everyone on scene was dumbfounded.

“Bring all the royal chefs and those who were responsible for delivering food to me!” Emperor Zhou could not accept this at all.

After bringing it here, he easily discovered…

Little Pingzi had disappeared.

The Empress actually had a vague guess in her heart. While she heaved a sigh of relief, she also felt lost…

However, this was a huge blow to Emperor Zhou.

“Execute everyone!” Emperor Zhou gritted his teeth.

He looked at the Empress and coldly said, “That eunuch is your subordinate, right? What happened?”

On the other side, Su Wen had already returned to Chu.

The Flame God Sect. Su Wen stepped out of the teleportation portal back to the sect.

“Father… I’ve already taken revenge for you…” Su Wen gritted his teeth.

Upon seeing Su Wen return, all the girls were overjoyed.

These days, Su Wen did not tell any of them and left directly for many days. It was impossible for the women not to be worried.

After he returned, they felt much more at ease.

Right now, they had to discuss what they were going to do next.

Everyone gathered together.

This included Wu Kunhu, Wu Lie, and Yan Ze.

Wu Kunhu could also tell that Wu Muyu and Su Wen were unable to be separated no matter what.

Especially now when they had reached such a stage.

He couldn’t be bothered anymore.

“Tell me, what are your plans?” Su Wen asked.

The main people he posed this question to were Yan Ze and Wu Kunhu.

Yan Ze glanced at him and laughed. “What are you planning, kid?”

Su Wen smiled. “I’m the Nanli King here. What else do I need to think about?”

“Harh?”

Everyone widened their eyes and looked at Su Wen.

This fellow was a King of Great Chu?

He became a King in such a short period of time?

How would they know of Su Wen’s experience in Chu?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Wu Muyu was the first to react. She said coquettishly, “Brother Su is so awesome! This way, I can become a consort.”

Yan Luoying: “???”

She looked at the little girl with an unfriendly gaze and said coldly, “What do you mean?”

Wu Muyu said matter-of-factly, “We’re no longer in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so the marriage bestowed by the emperor naturally doesn’t count. What right do you have to be the official wife? Of course it’s Brother Su who will choose who he wants to be the official wife. I think Brother Su likes me more. Is there a problem?”

“I think you’re asking for a beating!” Yan Luoying said coldly.

“Brother Su, look, Sister Yan is so fierce. I’m so scared!” Wu Muyu hid in Su Wen’s arms.

At that moment, Xie Yiyi rolled her eyes and said softly, “I think what Sister Muyu said makes sense…”

A harmonious scene?

It did not exist.

Even if they liked Su Wen, they still had to fight for what they wanted!

Yan Ze looked at Wu Kunhu and sneered. “Look at the good daughter you taught. She’s as scheming as you!”

Wu Kunhu said calmly, “I think what Muyu said makes sense.”

“You want to fight, right?”

“Hehe, I can crush you with one finger now!”

Su Wen felt a headache coming on.

These fellows… even Xie Yiyi clearly had the intention to compete for the official wife.

After all, in terms of looks and figure, she could be said to be the most outstanding among the women.

“Stop, stop, stop!”

Su Wen said in a deep voice, “Now is not the time to discuss this matter. I still have to mainly ask my two father-in-laws. What are your thoughts?”

Wu Kunhu looked at Su Wen and said, “You want to serve the Great Chu Court?”

Su Wen didn’t hide anything and said honestly, “I want my bloodline to become the Great Chu Emperor! This is also the reason why my father wanted to leave Great Zhou. He’s already dead! I must fulfill his last wish!”

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned.

In their opinion, this matter was very risky.

Yan Ze said in a low voice, “Are you trying to rebel! Right now, we only have two Heaven Rank experts. Even if Old Wu is very fierce, I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult for him to oppose the Royal Court. Unless you can get the Heaven Rank experts from the Flame God Sect to help you.”

Wu Kunhu also said, “I’m afraid this matter will be very difficult. Once they rebel, it will shake their foundation. I’m afraid the Flame God Sect won’t easily agree to it. Furthermore, the royal family of a country always has some foundation. They might have some hidden methods.”

Yan Luoying also persuaded, “In my opinion, we shouldn’t be too anxious. Father-in-law’s last wish is naturally good, but we have to think of a way slowly.”

Wu Muyu hugged Su Wen’s arm and gently persuaded him, “Brother Su, I’ll just be the consort first. I’m not in a hurry to be the Empress.”

Looking at everyone, Su Wen waved his hand and smiled. “It’s not as difficult as you think. If that was the case, why would my father move his entire family to Great Chu?”

He also knew that he had to confess sooner or later.

Taking a deep breath, he said honestly, “To tell you the truth, the Empress ruling Great Chu now is very close to me now.”

“Harh?”

Everyone opened their mouths again.

What was going on?

Great Chu was ruled by an Empress?

And she was even close to Su Wen?

What did this fellow do when he came to Great Chu?

Furthermore, from Su Wen’s words, this intimacy did not sound proper.

For a moment, no one knew how to respond… They were all digesting this news.

At this moment, Su Wen looked at Su Cheng beside him and said, “Big Brother, what about you? I’ve thought about it. You’re from the Su family, so you don’t have to say anything. You can become an official in the royal court and seize power from the government. Just do whatever you want!”

Su Cheng was a little confused.

“Can I do it?” This time, when he saw Su Changqing die, the impact on him was extremely great. This was especially the case when those experts fought, it could be said to be abnormally terrifying.

Only then did he realize that he had always been a frog at the bottom of the well.

He was even more impressed with his own Heaven Rank younger brother. It was only now that he realized the difference between them.

The resentment in his heart had long disappeared.

Su Wen said, “The secret technique I gave you requires the support of the military aura to cultivate faster. Furthermore, with me and the Emperor of Great Chu supporting you, what’s right is right, and what’s wrong is also right. From ancient times until now, the most terrifying weapon in the court is the Ruler. Therefore, this is a deal that will definitely allow you to only benefit. You should just go. Furthermore, you don’t have to defeat your enemies. You just have to do your job well to naturally achieve a meteoric rise.”

“Okay!” Su Cheng agreed.

He knew that Su Changqing was no longer around, so he had to bear more responsibility.

After this incident, he was not so naive anymore.

At this moment, Wu Kunhu finally understood.

“What you mean is that you want Great Empress Chu to be pregnant with your child?”

“Yes!” Su Wen did not hide anything. This was his plan.

At the mention of children, the expressions of the women in his house darkened.

They had followed Su Wen for so long, but there was still no news.

Wu Kunhu said, “In that case, we can still try for the Great Chu Royal Court, but I cannot enter the court!”

Wu Muyu was puzzled. “Why can’t Daddy go?”

Wu Kunhu shook his head and said, “Firstly, my cultivation is too high, and I can’t enter the court as a general anymore. Secondly, if I appear, I’m afraid others will be afraid. Thirdly, in the competition of the royal court, you must always leave a way out for yourself and have more trump cards. If you go, I will be your trump card!”

He looked at Wu Lie and said with a smile, “You can still go. With this kid protecting you, it won’t be a problem for you to become a hereditary duke in the future, right?”

Su Wen turned to Yan Ze.

Yan Ze pondered for a moment and said, “I’ve been fighting for half my life. Other than fighting a war, I don’t know anything else. I’m not Old Wu, and my cultivation can’t be improved. If possible, I still want to be a general. I feel comfortable staying with those soldiers, and don’t need to be conferred the title of Marquis or nobility.

I’m also at ease with Luoying following you. After fighting for a few more years, if you guys bear children, it won’t be too late for me to live a carefree life and look for my grandkids.”

Su Wen started to ponder about his possibilities.

Yan Ze and Wu Lie were willing to become officials in the royal court. Added with Su Cheng and Yan Luoying, their military strength was not bad.

It was not bad that Wu Kunhu did not intend to go as well.

Just like he said, one should always give themselves more cards to play.

This incident also broadened Su Wen’s horizons.

Wu Kunhu and Su Changqing, each more well-hidden than the last.

However, it had to be said that at the critical moment, having such a trump card was still useful.

At this moment, Wu Muyu said worriedly, “Brother Su, if you get together with the emperor, will the position of the main wife be hers? Or do you have to marry her?”

Su Wen flew into a rage. “Who told you that? Can our relationship be brought up on the surface?”

“Besides, how can I, a man, marry a woman?”

Wu Muyu smiled. “Then I’m relieved. I can still be a consort…”

Yan Luoying sneered. “Dream on!”

Both of them looked at Su Wen.

“Brother (Husband), what do you think we should do!”

“Hehe… hehe…” Su Wen was a little embarrassed. It was not easy for him to answer.

However, Su Wen was still biased towards Yan Luoying.

Wu Muyu was cute, but with her antics, if she became the official wife, wouldn’t she be so arrogant?

In addition, she already had Wu Kunhu backing him up…

As he pondered, Xie Yiyi also came over and said coquettishly, “Husband… I also want to be a consort…”

Directly nominating Yan Luoying to continue to be the official wife would be a little offensive.

How could he allow Yan Luoying to continue being the official wife without offending anyone?

Su Wen rolled his eyes and smiled. “Since all of you want to be the official wife, let’s settle this matter today.”

Wu Muyu’s eyes lit up when she heard this!

“Chance!”

Su Wen smiled and said, “You guys want to be the official wives, but you three aren’t the only ones in our family. Come, let everyone in the household come over. We won’t vote in-name… The one who gets the most votes will be the official wife. This matter will be decided and we won’t fight for it in the future!”

As they spoke, Wu Muyu, Yan Luoying, Xie Yiyi, Zhao Wanrou, Cui Yumian, the five girls gathered.

Su Wen smiled at Ning Shuang. “You come too.”

Everyone knew that Ning Shuang and Su Wen had an extraordinary relationship, so they had no objections.

Su Wen’s algorithm was very simple. These three women who wanted to compete for the official wife would definitely vote for themselves, while he would vote for Yan Luoying. Ning Shuang would also definitely listen to him. Zhao Wanrou and Wu Muyu were closer, while Cui Yumian might vote for Xie Yiyi. Therefore, logically speaking, Yan Luoying should win.

Even if the worst outcome was that Zhao Wanrou and Cui Yumian both voted for the same person, it would at most be a draw. The position of the official wife would still not be touched.

Everyone started writing their votes…

Meanwhile, Yan Ze and Wu Kunhu watched coldly from the side.

He couldn’t help but complain, “What’s so good about having so many wives? Listening to them chattering non-stop the entire day, it’s almost killing me!”

Wu Kunhu glanced at him and said disdainfully, “What do you know!”

“Haha! You know what I mean. Look at how pathetic you were when you left the capital, I couldn’t even be bothered to mock you. It’s all thanks to you only having three wives. If you had another concubine, wouldn’t she be hanging on your third leg?”

Bang!

Yan Ze fainted.

Wu Kunhu sneered and said, “Idiot, the difference in strength is so huge. Do you really think I don’t dare to beat you up?”

He might have lost in the war of words, but the war of fists was a different matter!

Actually Wu Kunhu understood what Yan Ze was talking about… but he hated the fact that he couldn’t live alone by himself!

In Yan Country…

At the Jade Water Clear Skies Sauna.

In the hall, Chu He sat on a chair.

“Oh, Shopkeeper Chu, are you resting?”

“Lord Zhao, hurry up and enter. What are you planning to do today?”

“Let’s take a bath first, then do that… something like a sauna? I heard that there’s a new thing called ‘Horse Killing Chicken’ recently? Let me see how it’s killed!”

(TL Note: The word massage is transliterated from English to Chinese, hence it sounds like the words Horse, Kill and Chicken.)

“Good, good, good! Please come in!”

Chu He and Zhao Rui were now in cahoots with all the influential officials of Yan Country.

The current Chu He was no longer as much of a stone buddha as before.

After sending someone in, he sat back in the recliner.

At that moment, an old man appeared at the door.

His face was dignified and stern.

He walked in slowly.

The moment Chu He saw this person, his eyes widened.

He immediately bounced off from his seat, the muscles all over his body tightening up…

The old man walked in front of Chu He and said coldly, “I finally found you!”

“Master…” Chu He called out softly.

“You disappoint me. Why didn’t you challenge all the people on the register?” The old man asked in a deep voice.

Chu He didn’t answer.

The old man said bitterly, “Do you still look like a swordsman now?”

Chu He said, “I… I think I’m fine now.”

“Very good? Be a merchant here? Be a shopkeeper? With your status, how can you conduct such a lowly service? Follow me!” The old man shouted.

Chu He mustered his courage and said, “Forgive me for not obeying your orders! I’m under Young Master’s orders. I can’t leave this place easily!”

“Heh! Who dares to be your young master! Follow me!”

The elder grabbed Chu He!

His figure flew rapidly away from the spa center!

Meanwhile, the vote to be Su Wen’s official wife was about to be announced.
